ATTR NGUYEN DUC MANH VIETNAMESE MIXED MEDIA PAINTING - Attributed to Nguyen Ducmanh, Vietnamese, American, born 1933, mixed media painting on paper depicting an abstract composition. Circa: 1984. Signed and dated, lower right. Framed. Additionally signed and inscribed, on the backside. Nguyen Ducmanh, sometimes known as The Duke, was born in Hanoi, Vietnam but moved to Paris as a young man. He worked as a graphic designer whilst painting. Although taken up by the art dealer Rene Drouin, his artistic career took off when he decamped to New York in April 1965. He gained a Rockefeller foundation grant and the Allan Stone Gallery soon accepted and began to show his work. Ducmans style mixes the calligraphic and abstract; like other Vietnamese artists in exile he benefited from a greater freedom to experiment than those who remained at home. One of a kind artwork.
